Frozen

I finished a peyote cuff last week. I've had this pattern and the beads for it since last spring, but just got around to putting it together.

this one fits right into my current craze for pale purples

the 15/0's on the picot edging look a bit off color in the photos, but they really pick up the golden highlights in the petals

This design is by Viki at Fairy's Dream Jewellrey. I added the edging and changed one of the colors from her design (the amethyst swirl and all that is that color was a dark metallic blueberry which got a little lost against the charcoal grey)

About Me

I am by no means a writer, but I have been keeping track of my life here in Georgia ten miles north of the Florida border in a land where I cross paths with peacocks, pigs, chickens, alligators, armadillos, fox, coyote, and rattlesnakes on a daily basis. I teach Spanish at a high school in the next county and my 64 mile round trip commute affords me time to listen to NPR and watch the changing of the seasons in the fields I pass. I can tell you more than you want to know about road kill and carrion creatures, and have been waging a months-long one-sided battle with a white rooster who has a death wish and a deep desire to cross the road in front of my car.
